2022-02-16 | This used to be a great app, but the company seems to have been taken over by a spam or malware company. You can not turn off or remove updates from the app. And the app throws constant ads into your notifications. Unremovable add at that. Currently using Malwarebytes app to roll the updates back, but they reinstall every couple of days. If they don't fix it soon, I'll be removing it completely. | ||
2022-02-15 | The new update is horrible. All I want it for is to look at the files on my sd card. It's invasive and full of ads. Opening it up I got half a screen of "we found a virus" download our questionable app! Its takes more processing power and has 2 notifications I can't disable. I liked the old version. | ||
2022-02-15 | Update rec. On 2/14/22 came with a cleaning tool which I would like to disable. Is this possible? I uninstalled the update. However it just reinstalled it the next day. Also once you clean or boost, the app no longer responds either. The back arrow non-functional. Needs a fix. I attempted to leave this feed back via the app however it doesn't respond either. I find the cleaner intrusive relentless annoying unwanted unnecessary redundant and in need of more fixes. Then fully test. google+ ?? | ||
2022-02-13 | Very user unfriendly and dysfunctional compared to the format before the upgrade. 1. The 'Recents' is regressive, gives only three items each in pictures and videos. Plus, there is no option to rename, cut and move to SD card. 2. The opening screen is very offensive. I keep track of what is on my phone, regularly clear what l do not want. So I don't need a 'reminder' every time l open to remove 'garbage' from my device. 3. The game screen on clicking File Manager is gross. Remove it | ||
2022-02-13 | Update: now very invasive like malware. Too much noise, telling me to click on some system garbage cleanup and everything. Feels like my phone is infected, really freaking me out. Had an ad for traffic pass and some other generic games, seemingly whatever it takes to ensure a dead battery. Just wanted to explore my files, man. | ||
2022-02-13 | I really hate this app, but it was installed as part of the system in my phone and I cannot get rid of it no matter what I do. 2 days ago, it started showing up on top of my screen, overriding anything else like messages I might want to see up there, and I can only get rid of the 'manditory' icon if I go into settings and delete the data used about 6 times a day. | ||
2022-02-13 | This recent update has made the app invasive on your privacy, excessive with ads, and when trying to go back to main screen after removing junk files it does not permit it. Disable this app if you're smart and tell them to bring back the original format that did its job without ads without and not trying to get you to buy other apps to add in unnecessarily. | ||
2022-02-12 | This app started to put it's own notification bar which is ugly, it doesn't follow the theme and it's functionality is useless and not suited for a notification bar. This looks like it was done by a rank amateur who should take up a different profession entirely. I cannot uninstall the app, I cannot remove the notification bar, it ignores disabled state, and I cannot control whether it updates or not. It is giving me good motivation to switch back to the iPhone. I never used this app as there are far superior ones on the play store. | ||
2022-02-12 | Used to be my native file manager untill it auto updated and threw countless popup adds at me in my notifications and whenever I open the app. Just use a different file manager. Update: Don't install this app. About an hour after i uninstalled this app, it automatically reinstalled. This app is eventually a virus. Save yourself and don't install | ||
2022-02-12 | I would give this app zero stars if I could. I go in to do a simple cleanup and literally cannot see what I'm doing because of all the ads. This thing got installed on my phone unbeknownst to me, overlaying my standard Files app. I would love to uninstall it, but I don't know what would happen if I did. The ads are intrusive, and in some cases, downright misleading. I got phony "you have an Android virus" pop-ups and other attempts to sell me space-saving apps. THIS IS DISGUSTING. |
